@Vincent-Lyon.Fr

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Notice that AO and BO are both radii of the circle. What does that tell you about their lengths?

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

There both equal?

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

@mathstudent55 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats right.

@Kainui

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Right. They have the same length. Now let's look at triangle ABO. In triangle ABO, two sides are congruent, AO and BO. If a triangle has two congruent sides, then the opposite angles are congruent.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

That means angles A and B are congruent.

OpenStudy (here_to_help15):

Which means?

BTW, congruent angles have the same measure.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

You have a triangle. The sum of the measures of the angles is 180. One angle measures 87 degrees, and the other two angles have equal measures. We can write an equation and solve for the measures of the two congruent angles.
